1 1/3 c  Butter/margarine
     2 c  Sugar
     2    Eggs
     8 oz Sour cream
     2 ts Vanilla
     6 c  Flour
     4 ts Baking powder
 1 1/3 ts Baking soda (odd amount I
          -know, I usually just put
          -in 1 tsp a smidge heaped)
 Cream together butter, sugar, eggs and sour cream, then add vanilla.  Stir,
 then sift in flour, baking powder and soda.
 The dough will be really thick – it is better to refridgerate it a bit but
 it can be used right away.  Roll out a 1/4 inch thick trying not to add too
 much extra flour – you will get dry cookies of too much flour is added. Use
 your favorite cookie cutters and bake in a 375-400F oven for 8 – 10
 minutes, just until you can touch the centers not leave a depression. YOU
 DO NOT WANT THE EDGES TO BROWN!!! This will make these very dry! Cool and
 frost. This make a bunch!!
